It is licensed in English by Yen Press, that published the first volume on January 18, 2022 under their Yen On imprint. In this world, you are defined worthy by your family for your gift of Spirit-Sight, which allows you to see and combat against Grotesqueries.It covers Kyoka going and announcing to her family that he wants to formalise the betrothment, and telling her father and stepmother that he'll give them more betrothal money if they apologise directly to Miyo. The inner workings of the characters and Miyo’s struggles with social interactions and herself shapes a lot of the story. Kiyoka played a big role in helping her heal, and I thought that their pure relationship and semi-slow pace was wholesome. Shinichi bluntly turns down Kaya's request, so she instead offers the suspicious Kouji a chance to marry Miyo like he wished.

Her family is really the worse, and I genuinely appreciate how Kiyoka is astute enough to understand Miyo and her personality. I picked this up because the anime is being released later this year, and I can confidently say I loved it! Without any spoilers, this is a marriage of convenience story but also a story of growth and healing with fantasy elements since this takes place during the Meiji/Taisho era period.

So far there have been no on-page Grotesqueries, but several characters used paper familiars (shikigami?

Although they haven’t harmed anyone yet, it’s only a matter of time until they will, so Kiyoka’s team need to put them to rest while figuring out the culprit behind it all.
